Heavy rains lashing the East Godavari region made it impossible for YSR Congress Party chief YS Jagan Mohan Reddy's popular mass contact initiative, Praja Sankalpa Yatra to progress on Tuesday. A statement released by the YSR Congress Party said that the public meeting which was to take place in Draksharamam this evening will be postponed by a day. YS Jagan will interact with the masses at Draksharamam tomorrow.

Praja Sankalpa Yatra entered day 204 this morning. The historic walkathon of YSR Congress Party President YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has been receiving an unprecedented response ever since it began. The AP Leader Of Opposition is on a mission to get an insight into the problems of the masses on a first-hand basis, in order to ease their woes by including them in his party's manifesto-YSRCP Navarathnalu.

Over the last 200 days of his padayatra, people from every nook and corner of the state have been thronging the padayatra venue to pour out their woes to the people's leader who has been lending a patient ear to them.
